    Hello,
    I have a zanussi DA 6252 dishwasher that has got a problem!
    I would appreciate any help on the following problem,
    The programme runs fine water enters the machine and you can hear it washing and you hear it drain away, It then stops and emits water from below the door and floods the kitchen.Checked door seal (good). I lay the machine on its side and drained all the water, restarted the machine and worked fine for a month, (now the problem is back) it worked fine which is very confusing!! I regularly clean all the filters and I have checked the sink spigot and the drainage pipe they are all clear.
    Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated,
    Thanks in advance.

    Re: flooding

    Sounds like you have a blockage from the pump to the sink by the description you have given, or your pump is operating but not pumping.

    What is the length of time between “stops” and “emits water”?

    .Checked door seal (good). I lay the machine on its side and drained all the water, restarted the machine and worked fine for a month, (now the problem is back) it worked fine which is very confusing!!
    .

    If this is what I think it is (awaiting answer from above question), then you have ‘adjusted’ the waste pipe when you pulled the appliance out to investigate the flooding. Over the course of the following month, the waste pipe has slipped back below the drain spigot allowing sink water to freely flow into your appliance.
